Hi, I've been anaemic nearly all my adult life, had a hysterectomy last year but it wasn't the magical cure I hoped for.
If I take iron supplements I get diarrhoea really bad so can only take them for four days then a break of fortnight so progress is slow.
I also have to take Folic Acid and have vitamin B12 injections every 8weeks.
I get so embarrassed as exertion makes me breathless but only when im especially low (as I am now). So I wouldn't join an exercise class. I hate feeling tired all the time and the palpitations are horrid too!
Is anyone else in the same boat? I thought we could support each other share some war stories!
